Items related to The Rime of the Ancient Mariner
The Rime of the Ancient Mariner relates the experiences of a sailor who has returned from a long sea voyage.

The Wedding-Guest's reaction turns from bemusement to impatience and fear to fascination as the Mariner's story progresses.

Review:
"Astonishingly, the poem's spell doesn't seem to weaken over the years... The scenery remains thrillingly hellish, while laced with photographically realistic meteorological effects, and the narrative drive is irresistible" (Guardian)
"Some of his [Coleridge's] poems are indisputably great, and the greatest is probably 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner'" (Daily Telegraph)
"The greatest sea poem in the language" (Jonathan Raban)
"The Poem contains many delicate touches of passion, and indeed the passion is every where true to nature, a great number of the stanzas present beautiful images, and are expressed with unusual felicity of language; and the versification, though the metre is itself unfit for long poems, is harmonious and artfully varied, exhibiting the utmost powers of that metre, and every variety of which it is capable" (William Wordsworth)
